tandem so that concepts and values that we all hold dear are
effectively imbibed and reinforced. We wholeheartedly embrace the
participation of parents in the education of their children.

basis of the childs security and happiness in school.

focusing on his/her strengths and special needs and also bearing in
mind the childs learning curve.

possible education of their children volunteering either on a regular
basis or just occasionally by helping in a classroom; joining with other
parents to organise and participate in School events.

strengthen the bridge between students, teachers and parents.

build meaningful relationships with teachers; thereby taking active
part in their childs learning activities.

share insights about the childs learning experience and performance.

experiences by taking an interest in the childs school experiences.
